LYRICS

All lyrics by Etai, primarily Daria and Kayleigh

DISCO INFERNO
don't be afraid to call a spade a fucking cunt
build yourself a future out of ignorance
no fun no fun no fun
shaking
i can see you shaking
i can see
i can see a face at the window
i can see a face
no fun
we're gonna burn this fucking house down to the ground
everyone will want to die when they come down
no fun no fun no fun

NAILS
when you touch me my blood runs cold
throw my body in the fire
when you're talking i will listen
throw my body in the water
ask for nothing wish for nothing
wait for nothing leave with nothing
what will you when nothing makes you happy?
what will you do then?
yeah
i wont hold my breath
i wont hold my

breath

THE CONTEXT OF ARGH
neither the time nor inclination
making me ill you're making me ill
someday you will ache like i ache
i know you wont i know you wont

NEGATIVE DIGNITY EQUITY
how can one person be wrong?
your views are very important to us
the uncertainty is killing me
i need to know how to exist
can i help you?
no, you couldn't possibly
don't touch what you cant afford
dont hate what you can ignore
try spending six months in a cell of your own construction
and eventually?
you'll learn
teaching yourself translucence is an essential skill
in this modern world, sweetheart
how can one person be wrong?
your call is very important to us
don't touch what you can't afford
don't hate what you can ignore

(from the split with Amorous Dialogues)

VITAMIN SHE

biology destiny
janice raymond strange vendetta
germaine greer public image

julie bindell a naive coward
doing it wrong
you're doing it wrong

girl born woman born girl born fully formed radical?

"one is not born woman, one becomes this" - simone de beauvoir

GREY LIE

stick to the script
wait for my cue
enter stage left
dance for you now

in this scene i will walk your tightrope at gunpoint

you will watch through fingers as i fall to the floor

curtain down lights out
this is what you came to see

curtain up take a bow
this is what you came to see

get a good look
get a good seat

yes.

SHIT OFF

before we tear ourselves to shreds
ask them why we broke our lungs young

we broke our heads thinking too hard

tear me a new one
just tear me anew

tear me open for you
i don’t care any more
i give up

don't go home 

she's had this sickness her whole life

she felt it her whole life
she's had this disease her entire adult life.

PRIVILEGE SEEKING MISSILES

i can think for myself
i can walk where i like
no one can stop me

i can see through the dark
i can do what i want
you'd never say no

cant imagine what you must be going through so i wont even try

we all have secret problems hidden underneath the mattress

i can count up to ten
i can talk to myself when no ones looking

i can go where i please
i can say what i want no repercussion.

(from the split with Castrato Attack Group)

NEW JIVE
oh no what did you say
i wont be spoken to that way
i exist
a brief reminder to remain fearful
a brief reminder that i can't go outside
just stay the fuck away from me you don't have to deal with this all the time.

HARSH REALM
minimum rage kept quiet
sit down shut up
sold your life for coins
within established boundaries
drink and fuck
you let us lick your plate clean
drink and fuck
five pounds and ninety three pence
johnny shall have a new master
calm down please
you're over reacting.

QUEST FOR TRANQUILLITY
try
no need
no need to try
no need
crying
why are you crying?
no need
locked inside myself
no escape
get out.

THE CHEST HAIRS OF PROSPERITY
i wear your lies
so big and strong
house fills with fear
i can't grow up
nine year old child for the rest of my life
i hope you choke
i hope you're proud.

UNBELIEVABLE KRIMEWAVE
a complete lack of responsibility
they've lost control of the streets
some of them wearing masks
they've got a serious problem
idiots scum bags
all of london's cells are full
taunting the police
make sure as few young people as possible are out this evening  
fresh violence
burning police cars
not just broken but sick.

VRAI OU FAUX
honesty as weaponry
let the fourth wall collapse
kiss goodnight sincerity
replace with productivity
equidistant from heart and head
the lump in your throat or the sound of my voice
buried
stop. 

MONDO FROWNO
just a little bit of fun
why don't i benefit?
(unintelligible).

GLEAMING THE CUBE

i don’t know what to say to you 

we just sit there faking modest

anyone can form opinions 

so we sit there and we listen

feeling more sick growing more deaf

drink the brown medicine eat the white medicine

how dare you escape my fists 

how dare you escape.

NO

eyes wide open jaws clamped shut saying nothing look away

no connection silent minds we're not the same thing i'm not you

thoughtless no thought heartless no heart speechless no speech useless no use

make yourself a happy nest make yourself the perfect bed

hide.
